US Supreme Court lifts ban on gun bump stocks
It says the government does not have the right to ban the accessories, which were used in America's deadliest mass shooting.
You're viewing a single thread.
These we're banned under Trump. This is ridiculous.
Sorry, can't hear you. Because of the hearing damage from using a full auto rifle without a fucking silencer!
That could happen with any gun loud enough, could even be a bolt action.
Suppressors are basic safety equipment, though, just ask France. Hell in some places in europe they're required to hunt to cut down on noise polution.
Since we have the NFA here which likes to pretend they're only tools for super murder assassins like Golgo 13 because they're so quiet they absorb sound like a black hole absorbs light (/s), we have active/passive ear protection instead.
I'd recommend the use of this basic safety equipment while doing anything loud, especially firing guns, unless unable due to it being a surprise self defense situation during which it becomes an acceptable risk.
You joke, but I litterally know a guy who recently completely lost his hearing from firing his AR without hearing protection.
How many rounds did he fire before losing his hearing entirely?
I ask because I have fired thousands of rounds, probably even tens of thousands of rounds through AR platforms without wearing hearing protection (while in service), and I only have mild hearing damage.
I know I wasn't there. He said a few minutes changed his life permanently.
I could easily see that happening in a small indoor range.
Except the fact that most indoor ranges have employees and rules and RSOs, you're not allowed in the bays without ears and eyes already on specifically because of this.
I'm betting that if his story is true, it was indoors but not on a real range. Maybe home defense or just being a dumb shit in a homemade basement range or something.
